Say hello to the FULL BUCK SUPERMOON! It is hard to tell with the naked eye, but this beautiful full moon will be one of the closest, biggest, and brightest of the year. Full moons are all about the climax of a cycle — which is why they can sometimes feel dramatic and emotionally overwhelming for many people. So buckle up for this supermoon!

Where does this full moon’s name come from? This full Moon is called the Buck Moon because the antlers of male deer (bucks) are fully grown in at this time of year. Bucks shed and regrow their antlers every year. With each passing year these antlers become larger and more impressive.

What is the Spiritual significance of this moon? Well this July’s moon is all about REFLECTION! The sun is currently in Cancer, but the moon is in Capricorn. A moon in Capricorn inspires us to take a cold hard look at things. There is a call for change in our lives and we must listen to our heart’s desires. This is a wonderful time to get quiet and slow down. Reevaluate what is most important to you in your life and set intentions to create a life you love. Rest is an important theme now. Nurture yourself, slow down, and take a time out from the typical rush.

In honor of the BUCK Moon, this is a great time to check out Kirem Marnett’s article, “Masculine Soul Signs for the New Earth,” featured right now in our summer Spiritual Journal issue (see below or listen to excerpt above)! The Buck has consistently shown up as the most popular male Soul Sign that New Earth women are seeking! Kirem shares all about this masculine Soul Sign and where the attraction is coming from.

“The form of vulnerability that Buck represents is achieved when one is in touch with their emotions and possesses the ability to express oneself in a grounded, non-attached way.” ~Kirem Marnett

This full moon, take a breath, ground yourself, remember who you are and what you want. Notice all the beauty in your life and move forward toward your highest good with purpose!

Buck: Masculine Soul Sign Wisdom

The younger of the male deer signs has consistently shown up as the most popular male Soul Sign that New Earth women are seeking for loving partnership! What’s struck me the most is how the frequency of seeing this sign as the ideal partner for many, many women has led me to believe that New Earth women are not seeking the dominant, aggressive male type anymore. Women are looking for a new kind of Alpha. The Buck offers an alternative to macho male energy. By the very fact that it is not an apex predator, Buck signals a shift toward a man who is in touch with vulnerability (prey), but is still not one to be pushed  around. Buck possesses groundedness and a developed spiritual awareness and/or a great imagination. Horns always signify giftedness in the higher mental realms.

To activate Buck energy: Improve communication skills. The form of vulnerability that Buck represents is achieved when one is in touch with their emotions and possesses the ability to express oneself in a grounded, non-attached way. Anger, jealousy, stress, etc., can all be transmuted through inner work and communicated in non-aggressive ways that allow for intimacy and stronger relationships. Committing to regular counseling, coaching or other healing sessions to focus on developing strong communication skills could be life-changing.
